dry skin under beard and stache

Spoiler

i had a go to beard butter that I have used for years. The girl that I bought from stopped making and selling the stuff. Now i am a man with out a country. I stopped using that and now I am getting dry flakey skin underneath my beard and stache. What can I use to stop this? Ive tried a balm but its so thick it doesnt really get to the skin underneath. The butter was really light and airy. I need something similar. Any suggestions?

How do you make your own?

It's actually REALLY REALLY easy. I'm thinking of starting to sell it.

Basically you just need oil, one carrier oil (the main oil) and some essential oil (for the smell, you only use a few drops)

For carrier oil, buy some jojoba oil, some argan oil, some sweet almond, some castor, some coconut. You dont need to buy all of them, just buy one if you want, each one has different properties.

For essential oils, you only need a few drops. About 5-10 drops per 30ml container should do it.

I'll give one of my recipes lol.

3 drops litsea 3 drops lime 1 drop mint 1 drop grapefruit 2 drops (I forget what it's called in English but it's the scent from orange leaves)

(Its my favorite one)

Put that in your dropper with your carrier oil and shake it. It's good to use right away, but the smell gets stronger over a week or so.

You can find it all on Amazon. If you want to test out first I suggest getting a bottle of jojoba (about 20$) as the carrier then get some essential oils (about 5 $ each) to test.

Get a couple of brown dropper bottles too.

Should cost you about 30$ to start testing. If it's your cup of tea, start investing a bit more
